What is a .vtt file?

WebVTT (VTT) is the W3C subtitle and caption format used by the HTML5 <track> element for timed text on the web. It extends the SubRip model with cue settings, positioning, styling, and metadata, and requires a WEBVTT header. It is the standard format for browser-based captions.

How to use this file

Use an example VTT to test HTML5 <track> caption rendering, cue-setting and positioning parsers, and converters between WebVTT and SRT.
